Hydrogen has one proton in its nucleus.
The number of protons in an atom determines its atomic number, which is unique to each element. For example, hydrogen has one proton, while carbon has six protons. The number of protons also dictates the chemical properties of an element.
In each atom of HNO3: There is 1 proton in the hydrogen atom, 7 protons in the nitrogen atom, and 16 protons in the oxygen atom. The number of neutrons can vary since it depends on the isotope of each element. There are 1 electron in the hydrogen atom, 7 electrons in the nitrogen atom, and 16 electrons in the oxygen atom. Each atom in HNO3 has 1 valence electron.
Hydrogen is an element, and the smallest form of an element is an atom. If you meant electrons, then 1.
Hydrogen is not only the lightest but the only known element with only 1 proton per atom.
For a given element, there is only one type of atom. It is the number of protons. However, A given element my exhibit different isotopes. This is where the atomic mass is different because of the different number of neutrons, but the number of protons remains the same. For ,say Hydrogen , It only contain 1 proton ,but has three different isotopes. #1 ; protium ; 1 proton , no neutrons, 1 electron ( The commonest isotope) #2 ; deuterium ; 1 proton , 1 neutron, 1 electron ( Far less common) #3 ; tritium ; 1 proton, 2 neutrons, 1 electron ( Very rare and radio-active). However, notice in all three cases the number or protons remains the same, so it remains the same atom. For a different element there will be a different number of protons, so it is a different atom. e.g. Helium; 2 protons, 2 neutrons, and 2 electrons. Notice it has 2 neutrons , like tritium, but this does not make it the same element with different atoms.
The "NUMBER" (#) of Protons in an Atom of Hydrogen is one (1). The number of protons is what makes a specific element that element. Hydrogen always has one proton no matter what. If someone says that a hydrogen atom has two protons(they are incorrect), it is no longer hydrogen; it is the element Helium.
A standard hydrogen atom has 1 proton. The Atomic Number of any element is the number of protons that element has.
The number of Protons in an atom, so Hydrogen with 1 proton has the atomic number 1.
The only element that has one proton and no neutrons is a hydrogen atom.
An average hydrogen atom consists of 1 proton and 1 electron. The 1 proton accounts for nearly all of that atom's mass. The 1 electron has only about 1/2000th the mass of the proton. That's about 0.0005 of the total atomic mass.
Yes, the number of protons defines what element it is. 1 proton = Hydrogen, 2 protons = Helium and so on
An atom is made up of protons neutrons and electrons. Hydrogen has 1 proton and 1 electron. The numbers will vary from element to element.
The atomic number is equivalent to its number of protons. One proton in atom is its atomic number is 1. Hydrogen is the only atom with one proton.
Each atom of one specific element has the same number of protons. For example, Helium has 1 proton in every atom's nucleus. To find how many protons are in an elements atoms nucleus, look at the elements atomic number on the Periodic Table.
The element with the atomic number 1 is Hydrogen (H). This means that the hydrogen atom generally has 1 electron and 1 proton.
The number of protons in an atom determines its atomic number, which is unique to each element. For example, hydrogen has one proton, while carbon has six protons. The number of protons also dictates the chemical properties of an element.
